    I’m gonna laugh so hard when they start deporting them and start figuring the hard way who were doing all the shit jobs no american wanted to do.

      That won’t happen because their efforts will not be effective at reducing the number of illegal immigrants. They will make some high-profile deportations, start rejecting and deporting every marginalized person currently in the immigration pipeline, and continue to turn a blind eye towards employers who rely on exploitation wages.

        Yep. This is just a fascist carnival show. It’ll make their base feel like they are winning.

        Georgia too, probably others. And the ironic thing is the same people who call for them to be deported will acknowledge they are hard working people who get little pay for the job. They just didn’t think what their actions would result in. Kind of like this election.

    So my industry uses a lot of migrant workers (construction, fuck 'em) are all those dudes who leave during the slow season to go back to Mexico not coming back? I’m positive that could cause some of these companies to collapse.

      Know someone who use work construction and they’d fudge the IDS of good illegal workers if they ended up having difficulties.

      Totally agree. They are the backbone of so much essential work in our country.
